Elysian Magnets

Description: Dive into darkness with this haunting Infant Annihilator design, featuring ghostly limbs, twisted waters, and surreal gore washed in eerie teal tones. Inspired by The Elysian Grandeval Galèriarch, this brutal deathcore visual is as chaotic as the music itself — fast, technical, and disturbingly beautiful.

Description: The emblem of the Elysian empire from the novel Elysian Empire Chronicles.

Description: A playful take on the word “Elysian,” brought to life through bold blue forms, soft yellow tones, and expressive typography. The flowing shapes and layered details create a dreamy yet energetic character, blending a cute visual style with a slightly surreal atmosphere.

Description: Elysian Park is a neighborhood in central Los Angeles, well known for the homonymous park (the oldest in LA) and home of the Dodger Stadium

Description: I painted this map of Elysian Heights for a show I called "Taste of the Mideast Side" in which I exhibited maps of various neighborhoods in the Mideast Los Angeles region. The gray cat in the compass rose is "Room 8" -- an internet celebrity cat who was world-famous before there was an internet.

Description: The Mideast Side -- also known as "Mideast Los Angeles" and "MELA" -- is a region of Central Los Angeles (i.e. Hollywood, Downtown, Midtown, and the Mideast).
